Hello,
A very efficient way for typing code source in insert mode is the
possibility to select and paste text with the cursor staying at rest
(modeless-selection).
That can be obtained in gvim by unactivating the mouse (set mouse="").
Unfortunately, the mouse can no longer be used for moving the cursor
in that case.

Is it possible to have both
- mouse active (with left mouse button)
- modeless selection active (with right mouse button)

That would be the top.

Best regards,
Jean Johner

See :help modeless-selection

In gvim, Ctrl-Shift-Mouse activates the modeless selection regardless of
what 'mouse' is set to.
